After a competitive 1-1 draw in the T20I series, Sri Lanka will look to bounce back strongly in the upcoming three-match ODI series against New Zealand. The first ODI of the series is set to be held in Dambulla, with the remaining matches taking place in Pallekele. The Sri Lankan team, led by Charith Asalanka, comes into the series with a solid recent record, having triumphed over India and the West Indies at home. However, despite their strong showing in the T20Is, the Lankans couldn’t seal the series win, with the second match ending in a dramatic tie, leaving them hungry for success in the 50-over format. Wanindu Hasaranga aur Lockie Ferguson will not feature in the 50-over series.

Sri Lanka’s recent form and momentum

The Lankan side enters this ODI series with high spirits, riding on their strong performances in recent home series. They have looked dominant with the bat and ball, particularly with the likes of Dasun Shanaka playing key role. Nevertheless, the setback in the T20I series could add extra motivation to the side as they look to get back to winning ways in the longer format. Asalanka, in particular, will be pivotal in leading the team with his solid batting performances, alongside the ever-reliable Pathum Nissanka and the experienced Angelo Mathews.

New Zealand’s challenge and key players

New Zealand, led by Mitchell Santner, enters the series under somewhat different circumstances. While missing some of their star players, they are well-equipped with a strong mix of youth and experience. Key players like Michael Bracewell, Mark Chapman and Glenn Phillips will be crucial to New Zealand’s hopes. The Black Caps will be looking to play with a chip on their shoulder, especially after their 1-1 draw in the T20Is. Despite their squad not being at full strength, their depth and variety will pose challenges to Sri Lanka, particularly in conditions that are familiar to the home side.
